CD Review: The Voice Winner Sawyer Fredericks Delivers "A Good Storm"

American
singer/songwriter and winner of season eight of NBC's "The Voice,"
Sawyer Fredericks recently released his debut album titled "A Good
Storm." His songs set an iTunes record for "The Voice" and he is one of the
youngest winners of the show. He was born in Connecticut, but has since
moved to an 88-acre farm in New York. After releasing his first
independent album in 2013, his appearance on "The Voice" changed his
life forever.

His new
eleven-song release begins with the pop/stomp rhythm of "Take It All" as
his voice sounds mature well beyond his sixteen years. His voice soars
on the uplifting tone of "This Fire," while fellow "Voice" contestant Mia Z
lends her talents to the country/pop appeal of "Stranger." The acoustic
starkness of "Still Here" and "A Good Storm" allow you to focus on his
exceptional vocals, before Pharell Williams (his coach on "The Voice")
adds the dance beats to the album closer "4 Pockets." Sawyer Fredericks
is touring throughout California before heading back to the east coast
for the Schoharie County Fair in July. To find out more about his new
